I got this shadestick from a CCO. I love love love the colour, which is "Penny", and use it often. I apply it on my eyelids and blend with a brush or my fingers. I apply a darker colour towards the ends of my eyelids and blend it into "Penny". I use it with a primer so I cannot tell you anything about its durability but as you can see from the swatches (no primer used) the colour is awesome without primer.
